Joe Biden says Hunter will not engage in foreign business if he wins 2020 race

[Washington Examiner] Joe Biden said that his family members, including Hunter Biden, would not engage in any foreign business if he wins the presidency in 2020.

That's not because Hunter did anything wrong as a board member of the Ukrainian gas company Burisma, the former vice president said, but due to questionable business activities of President Trump's children.

"They will not be engaged in any foreign business because of what's happened in this administration," Biden said of Hunter Biden and brother James Biden, in an Axios on HBO interview that aired Sunday. "No one's going to be seeking patents for things from China. No one's going to be engaged in that kind of thing."

Hunter Biden was on the board of Burisma while Joe Biden, 77, worked on Ukrainian policy while vice president. House Democrats launched impeachment proceedings against Trump after revelations of a phone call in which Trump asked the Ukrainian president to investigate the Bidens, which Democrats argue Trump did for personal political interests rather than legitimate policy reasons.

#3 Is this a quid pro quo? Hunter not engaging in foreign business for Joe being elected? That's a bum deal.

Indeed. Patents are granted for useful, ingenious, ninobvious ways of solving a problem.

Whereas Son Hoover aka Lil' Crackpipe's solutions to the problem of how to fund his habits entailed the most obvious and useless form of monetization known to man: trading political influence for money.

You and your spawn wouldn't know about newfangled things like patents, Joe. You made your money the old-fashioned way.
